Unlike regular video search engines, VideoSurf indexes the visual content within videos, including scenes and people, rather than traditional video titles, descriptions, or tags. The search results are categorized by individuals appearing in the videos, and for each video, key thumbnail images are arranged along a timeline. In addition to search functionality, VideoSurf also offers sharing capabilities, allowing users to freely select and share specific clips from a video. Furthermore, VideoSurf boasts an enormous video database, reportedly containing up to 10 billion videos.
